∞ The thing that shocked me in the Articles we've read the past few days is that 1/4 of the deaths were children. This made me cry because I couldn't handle how many kids the Nazis killed and why they would kill kids and NEWBORNS!! Right when the mother had the baby the Nazi soldiers would kill the baby. If you were a Nazi soldier could you handle killing as many people as they did?? Answer in the comments below! ∞

Hoops for Hope is an organization made by a 17 year old named Austin Gutwein that helps kids in Africa suffering to AIDS. The reason he made this organization is because Austin Gutwein watched a video that showed children who had lost their parents to AIDS. This Organization is a Shoot-A-Thon and the worlds biggest Shoot-A-Thon in the WORLD! After watching the video, he realized these kids weren’t any different from him except they were suffering. Every 14 Seconds a child in Africa gets orphaned with AIDS or witness their parents die from AIDS/HIV. Each day over 6,000 kids join the 15 million children world wide who have already lost either one or both of their parents to either AIDS/HIV! The effects of this program are that Hoops For Hope make over $1 Million Dollars a year and so far they've made over $1 Billion Dollars! Please visit this website and Donate like I did. Help a child in Africa and save his/her family.

Pure Pressure Story

11.11.13

There was a time when I was with my brother and his friends at my
old blue house and they all were swimming in our 15 ft pool... They were
all having fun and I was just sitting on the side watching. I was
really sad that I couldn't swim with him and all of his friends. I felt
left out and was thinking about going inside because I was so bored. I
was just that lonely bystander watching everyone else have fun. So I
decided to pretend to walk inside so my brother would talk to me. It
just so happened it worked just as I planned... Some things didn't go so
well though.

But then my brother said "Branden why are you going inside?"

I said "Cause you and your friends are not letting me swim!"

His friends all butted in and said "if you jump off the diving board without floaters, you can swim with us."

I didn't want to do this but I really wanted to swim.. It didn't turn out very well.
So I decided to do it.I got on the diving board and looked down at
all of them staring at me and I just couldn't do it. I was so scared
about if I would've drowned or possibly died.

I was on the diving board while my brother and his friends were all
in the pool saying and yelling "Jump off the Board" and "Hurry up you
little baby"!

I didn't know what to do. So I just ran and jumped... I was never so
scared in my life. I was in the air for about 5 seconds and I was just
thinking if I would die or not. So I reached the water I couldn't come
up... So my brother and all of his friends swam as fast as they could to
me cause i was underwater for over 10 seconds! My dad came outside and
got me out of the pool as fast as he could to try and save me. My
brothers friend "Austin" got to me first since he was the closest to me.
Everyone there was so scared and shocked that I didn't die when that
happened! I was even shocked that I didn't die. I then got up and jumped
in the shallow end and all of my brothers friends were surrounding me
worried about me. The good part about this was that I got to swim with
my brothers friends after that! I was so happy that I got to swim with
them instead of being a by stander.

The lesson of this story is don't be a bystander and not ask if you
can do something with who ever you are with. Go take part in whatever
you want and don't be scared to do it. If you have fears about doing it,
Over come those fears while your doing it. I did and I got what I
wanted when I did it.

Revision

What do you think could happen if you took a stand and did what you were afraid of? Do you think you would be happier about your self? If you have answers to these questions Google Doc me a story or a short paragraph about what happened and how it happened. I really want to hear from you. I want us to connect and find similarities about each other.

I think The Picture Is a Fire Whirl. I think this because it have a little hole at the top which lets the gas out. Also because at the very top of the photo it has a Capsule to catch all of the gas that comes out when the Fire Whirl is Burning.The side of the building is all metal so that means it traps the heat from getting out too much.I think it's something about forest fires and an example of how it starts.

Society's expectations for boys as they grow into adulthood is supposed to be A Leader and Mature. For example in the novel "The Lord Of The Flies" Ralph is trying to keep everyone alive and not wasting any time about surviving. The Society now a days doesn't want a bad boy that steals and vandalizes stuff... You never know they could want a Strong Blonde Haired Man that is also Respectful,Mature,and a Leader. Again, in the Novel "The Lord Of The Flies" Jack is the oldest and he is Tall and Skinny and is a leader but Ralph was voted the leader over him.What I'm trying to point out is that society affects the Adulthood of Young men.

I could use my online power by playing and communicating with friends. The way I would do that is get on my ps3 and talk to my friends if something has happened or something. Like say their friend got in an accident we could talk in private on ps3. For instance, my buddy on ps3 just lost his dog and he was really sad about it cause he had that dog since he was 2. I talked to him for about 2 hours just about a dog. In conclusion to all this, I can you use my online power for good by caring about people.

(1) This is a 6 string guitar...This is also my Guitar.I love guitar so much because they just make a great sound when they are played right. Also because it's relaxing to listen to when your stressed out and sad.

(2) This is a 4 string guitar with it's golden neck...Also know as a bass guitar,they are easier to play is what I think and have not as good as sound as an Acoustic Guitar.

(3)All three of these Guitars are Electric the last one "yellow" has "12" strings.But they're all the same brand.The middle guitar is the best sound out of all of them because of the neck and how there's certain holes on the guitar.

(4)But see here Les Paul has the best guitar creations in the world. No other guitar company can do what Les Paul does...It's a proven fact.

(5) See here is another great guitar creation by Les Paul it is a working guitar but it lights up every time you tune your guitar it turns green when its the right cord.

I like MW3 because it has amazing graphics and has every little detail for a real life experience.It has other people you can play with in Multilayer and play with girls and guys all of the planet.I have an like 3 main accounts on ps3 like blackop990,plasmaT-URTLE,and main one is V3NOM3_iiiMoAb. I play all the time and I am fun to play with. I just like all of the guns and perks inside of the game and how all of them work and theespeciallycamouflage.

I like Black Ops 2 because....I like Black ops 2 because it has probably the best maps on anyCall Of Duty game out there. I also like it because of the camouflagebecause they're probably the coolest out of all Call Of Dutygames.I like it because it lets you have more spots for your emblem and mw3 won't even let you make anything.
